If Duck Fund doesn't work out, I often find EMD for wholesalers.Reach out if you need funding.

I was thinking that I might stop by a CapSource office nearby where I could go in person and request detailed information about private money, even though my investment would be in Texas. 

It's been 5 mths have they funded a deal for you? 

I need to fill out two sections 1) personal information and 2) company information. 

And, I just don't buy that GPs will liquidate the deal to finance their personal problems - if that's the case, then I invested with a GP who was irresponsible to risk their family's financial future on a single deal.

Personally no.

I personally like the rehab estimator on here.1.

I know a few contractors in the ocala area personally but don't really want to live there.

It's about being a person great mentors want to help!

If you can't keep control of your personal finances, you are highly unlikely to succeed in real estate investing.
